Background and release[edit]

Del Rey spoke to Huw Stephens on BBC Radio 1 about the song, saying: "It's probably the track that's the most different from the other tracks on the record. It has a little bit of an old-world Italian feel. It's kind of a weirder song but I love the chorus. It's filmic."[7][8]

On September 16, 2015, The song premiered live to BBC Radio 1 by Del Rey from Paris, France. The official audio for the song was supposed to be uploaded to Del Rey's Vevo channel on the same day, but it didn't materialize. "Salvatore" was made available when the album Honeymoon was released on September 18, 2015.

Critical reception[edit]

Radio.com praised Del Rey's vocal performance, writing "'Salvatore' has a wending, almost woozy, style to it. It's a slower track compared to many of the others she's already released off the album, but it keeps with the album's overall dark almost macabre–march towards some fateful end."[9]
